    Hi,

    I have a number of shows which have been used in a Plex context and I'm wanting to move over to Jellyfin.
    (Currently, Jellyfin is running with the files, but there's been problems which I assume derive from retaining the Plex naming, and I want to resolve them. Plex and Jellyfin are currently both running. I've been testing Jellyfin to see if it works for me.)

    What I'm after is a good guide on how to migrate the naming schemes between these two servers.
    I'm aware of the webpage where is explains TVs, movies, etc; but, this page doesn't explain everything and I'd rather get it right the first time, since this will take a fair amount of work.

    For example, Plex allows multiple resolutions of a show/movie and then selects the most suitable one for your client. You do this following:
    SHOW S01E01 NAME {edition-1080p}.mkv
    SHOW S01E01 NAME {edition-720p}.mkv

    It seems vaguely possible to do this in Jellyfin, but I have no idea how and it's not in the documentation. Currently, the episode shows up multiple times, one for each resolution.

    Another example would be the best way to add nfo files, since I've not had to deal with them using Plex. eg., per episode or per season or per show.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    thanks
